• Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker

  • Former College Hockey Player

Built by an athlete. For athletes.

I'm Emma — former college hockey player who knows what it costs to play in your own head.

I work with athletes who are talented, driven, and disciplined — and still can't figure out why they're getting in their own way. That gap between what you're capable of and how you're actually performing? That's exactly where I work."

  • In-Person in downtown Duluth, Minnesota

  • Virtual in the State of Minnesota

  • Specializing in athletes & high performers

What I Help With

Performance anxiety + fear of failure

  • Identity loss after injury or transition

  • Perfectionism and burnout

  • Life after sport

  • Pressure from coaches, parents, or expectations

  • Mental health support for driven, high-functioning people

If you're used to being the strong one, the disciplined one, the one everyone counts on this space is for you.
